So, you have this character that's important to the story. Maybe a Tragic Hero, or a family member or friend, The Rival, or a major antagonist. They die in a dramatic scene, and there's a funeral. With three people attending. For added pathos, it may be raining. Seems only the True Companions and possibly Worthy Opponent care enough to be there.
This can be used to show how the person had pushed everyone away until he was Hated by All, or how trivial and shallow his life was, or how fair-weather his so-called-friends were, or how his reputation lasted after death, or What You Are in the Dark resulted in his death with no one knowing the truth, or the simple fact that no one even knew this person. Perhaps these people are, justifiably or otherwise, discouraged or actively banned from attending.
Distinct from And There Was Much Rejoicing in that the reaction needn't be positive, only largely indifferent except for a select few, and usually Played for Drama instead of laughs. Often goes with Downer Beginning.
If the person has no time for a formal funeral, it is not an example of this; they may substitute To Absent Friends or other forms of Due to the Dead, such as visiting the grave.
Compare Dying Alone. Contrast Dead Guy on Display.
As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware.

Watchmen: Only a handful of mourners turn up to The Comedian's funeral. As Ozymandias observes earlier in the story, "The Comedian made a lot of enemies, even amongst his friends." Aside from the small number of fellow vigilantes who attend the funeral, the only other mourner is one of The Comedian's arch enemies.

In When Darkness Falls, Nina gets honor murdered by her family, making it look like a suicide. Only shortly after, her body is flown into the country she was born and buried there. The family tells nobody about that, not even her younger sister, who is sedated at that time, and eventually, probably no one comes to her funeral.

Predicted in GoldenEye. Being a James Bond film, of course, it didn't happen but the prediction still holds true. When Bond finally does die, Moneypenny will probably be the closest thing to a friend in attendance. Although after the reboot, Felix Leiter could come as well. But that still makes two.
006's prediction does eventually come true at the end of No Time to Die. Only M, Q, Moneypenny, Bill Tanner and Nomi are present for a private vigil. Leiter couldn't come because he died earlier in the movie.

Nobody attends the funeral but Luke and his friend Lorelai who goes with him to support him despite not knowing the deceased herself. Luke freaks out a bit because he sees himself in his uncle, but Lorelai assures him he's respected and liked.

The Defenders (2017): After Matt's apparent "death" at Midland Circle, we see Karen holding a lonely vigil in Matt's church. When Foggy drops in, she asks him to stay and pray alongside her. The camerawork when Karen and Foggy are sitting in the pews deliberately echoes the camerawork of Matt, Karen and Foggy sitting in the same pews at Grotto's funeral, minus Matt of course.

In Batman: Arkham Knight, this is considered one of Joker's worst fears as seen during a fear toxin-induced hallucination, in which only Harley is attending. His worst fear is that in spite of everything he did in life, now that he's dead in time nobody will remember him.

A less serious example that soon turns to comedy is on Chuck. Casey pretends to play dead and has a funeral to lure his trio of former teammates out, and agents are supposed to be hidden among the guests attending, but Chuck points out that the only people there are him, Sarah, and the agents.

An episode of Louie has the title character attend the funeral of an extremely, nauseatingly unpleasant producer who is universally despised by comedians, precisely because Louie knew that no one would come, and couldn't sleep. There, he meets none other than Robin Williams (playing himself) who came for exactly the same reasons. They promise to do the same for each other. They learn that the nasty man was actually deeply loved and respected — by the staff of his favorite strip club. But since no one wanted to go there with the weasel, no one knew about his soft side.

On That '70s Show, Red has a near-death experience and has a dream of nobody attending his funeral, a side effect (according to Kitty) of "calling everyone a dumbass." Subverted when, in a later dream, Red realizes everyone really is a dumbass, and he'd rather not have a bunch of dumbasses at his funeral.

The Simpsons
In "The Wizard of Evergreen Terrace", Homer imagines himself dying after a lifetime of mediocrity: in Homer's imagination, the gates to the Graveyard of the Future open, where his funeral is taking place. Ned Flanders, having become a Cardinal, does the ceremony, while President Lenny and two bodyguards, Barney Gumble with his arms full of Oscars, as well as the robot from Lost in Space and Heckle and Jeckle, stand by.
When Bleeding Gums Murphy died in "'Round Springfield", the only person who went to the funeral was Lisa. Marge and Homer didn't even actually attend the funeral, they just waited for Lisa at the edge of the cemetery, Homer buying hot dogs. Reverend Lovejoy didn't even get his name right.
In "Raging Abe Simpson and His Grumbling Grandson in "The Curse of the Flying Hellfish"", Mr. Burns and Abe Simpson are the only people attending the funeral of Asa Phelps. The only reason they're there is that they've entered a Tontine over a set of priceless German paintings that they stole from the Nazis during World War II.
In "Selma's Choice", Marge's Aunt Gladys dies. When the family arrives for the funeral, there are many people attending. After Selma says that Gladys "wasn't a rich woman," everyone aside from her, Patty, Marge's mother and the Simpson family all get up and leave. One man returns upon hearing she was rich in spirit, but it turns out he'd forgotten his hat.

At the end of The Day of the Jackal, the assassin is discreetly buried under the pretext of him being a foreign tourist killed in a road accident.

Supernatural:
When John Winchester dies, the only people who attend his funeral (being burned in a field) are Sam and Dean. They invited anyone to said field or even put out death notices through the hunters community. It presumably got around by word of mouth eventually that Winchester was out of the game. Pastor Jim and Caleb would have come, if given the opportunity, if they hadn't been murdered by demons half a season before so the Winchesters would have nowhere to run.
In Season 4, Sam and Dean are the only mourners at their half-brother Adam's funeral. After realizing he had been Dead All Along and the thing they had met was a ghoul, they grieve the brother they never knew.
Sam and Dean are also the only mourners when they bury their time-traveling grandfather Henry Winchester.
Dean mourns alone when Kevin Tran is killed by Gadreel in Sam's body.

King of the Hill: This was the eventual fate of Cotton Hill. An unrepentant asshole in life, as well as an abusive husband and father, nobody was really that sorry to see him go. Having outlived all of his war buddies meant he had no one; not his ex-wife, his widow, his infant son, his illegitimate son, or his grandson. The only people present at his funeral were his son Hank and three of his friends, the latter of whom were mostly along for the ride.

In A Death in the Family, a total of five people attend Jason Todd's funeral: Bruce, Alfred, Jim and Barbara Gordon, and a priest. Though there are a number of reasons as to why. First, Jason was only in his mid-teens at the time, and as the narration states "Jason's life was too short for his passing to cause many ripples." Second, Dick Grayson, the first Robin and Jason's surrogate brother, had been on an adventure in space at the time, and didn't find out about Jason's death until he returned to Earth. Third, Jason was usually busy with his duties as Robin in Gotham, preventing him from forming friendships with civilians or other heroes.

On My Name Is Earl one of the people that Earl is trying to make up to just died due to a freak accident with a Murphy bed. They are unable to find next-of-kin so Earl takes it upon himself to arrange the guy's funeral. Problem is that they can't find anyone that knew the guy and it looks like he would get one of these.... and then the IMs start popping up on the guy's computer asking where we was. Turns out the guy lived his life on the internet and that all his friends were on there. Earl and Joy managed to figure out how to use a computer enough to arrange a wake at his old apartment for those who can make it. The apartment is standing room only.

In an issue of JLA (1997), we see Superman attending the funeral of Metamorpho; the only other people there are Metamorpho's family, his personal rival Java, the gravedigger, and the minister. This isn't because Metamorpho is unpopular or unloved, but rather because superheroes come back to life so frequently that most people find it difficult to care about funerals. Especially in the case of Metamorpho specifically, who's died and come back more than once by that point. As if to drive the point home further, Metamorpho and many of the heroes whose markers were shown in the scene (Hal Jordan, Barry Allen, Oliver Queen, Ice, and the original Hourman) came back over the ensuing few years, as did Tomorrow Woman, who debuted and died in the very same issue.

In Grave of the Fireflies, Setsuko's funeral is this. It is already heartbreaking enough that her brother Seita tried everything he could to make sure that they could survive and failed. How does it feel when you are alone in cremating her? It's no wonder he lost all reason to live after this.

Vorkosigan Saga: The only people present at Bothari's funeral are Miles and Cordelia. Bear in mind, though, that in Barrayaran culture, mourning the dead isn't a one-off event. It may take Bothari's daughter another ten years to come to terms with the horrifying things that she has learnt about him, and to prove herself as an independent person who doesn't need her dead father's approval, before she can allow herself to mourn for him, but she comes back to burn a grave-offering for him eventually.

In A Way Out, Leo's funeral (should the player decide to shoot him) plays out this way. It's justified because Leo is an escaped criminal who had assaulted and even killed several police officers, and held one (Vincent) hostage. Naturally, his marker is quite small and cheap-looking, with a small picture and a plain flower bouquet, and only his wife and son are seen paying their respects.

The A-Team: In "A Nice Place to Visit", the team attended the funeral of a friend of theirs they had served in Vietnam with. Besides the team and Amy, the only people there were the priest conducting the service and the man's wife.
A subversion of sorts. The townspeople wanted to attend the vet's funeral but... they were intimidated into not attending by the local town heavies. Who were also the men who killed him.

In the Archdiocese of Louisville, there is a "Joseph of Arimathea Society"note Named after the man from The Four Gospels who took Jesus' body for burial after the crucifixion designed to prevent this. They provide flowers and graveside prayers for bodies left unclaimed in the morgue.
A similar organization is Garden of Innocence, a nonprofit that provides funerals for abandoned and unidentified children. They bury each child with a handmade blanket, a toy, and a poem written just for them. According to their website, it started in 1999 when the founder read about a baby that had been found dead in the trash. After a month of not being able to forget about him, they called the county coroner's office and asked what had happened to him. They were told the baby was still there, and would be buried in an unmarked grave if he was not claimed. The founder asked, "How do you a claim a baby that's not yours?" and was told, "Show me you have a dignified place to put him."

Nobody from the town, whose prosperity is given to them by the Monk's holy tree, attends. To make matters worse, the monks depart immediately after the prayer, ignoring Hammer as she calls them out for their callous nature and the callous "business as usual" way the world is treating the death of this man.

In L.A. Noire, Cole Phelps' funeral is sparsely populated due to making several enemies in the Marines and the police force. What's worse is that half of those are crooked cops who put him on the path leading to his death, with the guy who ruined his life delivering his eulogy. Only his former company sergeant, his ex-wife and kids, lover and handful of ex-partners are really there for him. And then there's that guy from outside that bar.

Some adaptations play with this. At least one film version had half of Camden Town show up to the funeral - so they could celebrate the fact that he was finally gone.
Another adaptation still has this happen to Scrooge even after he repents, but with one notable exception - a single mourner does show up for his funeral: Tiny Tim.

Daredevil (2015):
"Penny and Dime" opens with two different funerals. Before the opening credits, we get a wake held by the Kitchen Irish for their associates who were killed when Frank Castle shot up their clubhouse. The only survivor of the massacre, Grotto, isn't part of this wake, due to dying at Frank's hands a few days later. He instead gets a private funeral service at Clinton Church with only Matt, Karen and Foggy in attendance.
After Elektra dies, Matt and Stick are the only ones who show up for her burial.
The Defenders (2017): After Matt's apparent "death" at Midland Circle, we see Karen holding a lonely vigil in Matt's church. When Foggy drops in, she asks him to stay and pray alongside her. The camerawork when Karen and Foggy are sitting in the pews deliberately echoes the camerawork of Matt, Karen and Foggy sitting in the same pews at Grotto's funeral, minus Matt of course.

In The Mayor of Casterbridge, Michael Henchard, having finally hit rock bottom, leaves instructions on his deathbed that he is to have one of these. He insists that his stepdaughter Elizabeth-Jane Farfrae, his only living "relative", not be told of his death (which becomes impossible to honour when she and her husband arrive at his house half an hour after he dies), that church bells not be rung to signal his death, that his funeral have no mourners, that his grave have no flowers, and that no man remember him. Elizabeth-Jane, who had been hoping to reconcile with him before he died, is devastated by the self-loathing of his final wishes.

In Code Geass, Suzaku's grave is visited only by the cat Arthur. As some blogger put it, "if the cat is the only person at your grave, you must have really sucked in life." Of course, that scene happened long after the actual funeral and he is Not Quite Dead but still. It signifies how, in the end, everyone saw him as a traitor. To everyone.

The Legend of Tian-ding ends with your titular hero's death, in the hands of your own protégé who mistook you as one of the Les Collaborateurs. You unfortunately died a traitor because your allies aren't able to clear your name; you're then buried in an unmarked grave where only a handful of still-surviving resistance members (countable on both hands) mourns your passing. But eventually in the years to come, the truth comes to light, at which point you're honored with a statue in your likeness.

All in the Family: In "Edith's Final Respects," Edith — to her surprise — is the only one to attend her Aunt Rose's funeral. (This is a twist on the trope, as Aunt Rose was fairly well respected. However, Rose is also very aged and had few surviving close friends or family that were able to attend the funeral, a reflection of real life.)

A Christmas Carol
Scrooge is shown in the Bad Future that he will die alone and unmourned if he doesn't repent, with his former business acquaintances cruelly mocking his death, and stating they might go if the service is catered.
It's also mentioned early on that Scrooge was the only person to show up to Marley's funeral. The 1999 adaptation shows the funeral, attended only by Scrooge, the priest, and a few business associates.
Some adaptations play with this. At least one film version had half of Camden Town show up to the funeral - so they could celebrate the fact that he was finally gone.
Another adaptation still has this happen to Scrooge even after he repents, but with one notable exception - a single mourner does show up for his funeral: Tiny Tim.

Game of Thrones: The Night's Watch burn their dead in on massive funeral pyres. Meanwhile, heartbroken Jon Snow honors the girl he loved, Ygritte, by himself, building a funeral pyre for her, and laying her to rest in the "true North" as she would have wanted. Alone, he burns her body on the pyre, per Watch and wildling procedure, and sheds Manly Tears for her.
In House of the Dragon, few people attend the funeral of Rhaenyra Targaryen's sixth child after the Tragic Stillbirth. Especially compared to the attendance for the earlier funeral of Rhaenyra's brother Baelon, who also died by stillbirth. It still turns into an Awesome Moment of Crowning when Ser Erryk Cargyll brings the Targaryen crown to Rhaenyra.

Six Feet Under:
One of the people that died was a con artist who had swindled a lot of money. The only one who showed up was his wife who didn't know about it until after he died.
One woman who seemed to have no family, friends or acquaintances whatsoever. Ruth was desperate to find somebody to attend, and at the end only the Fishers and Rico were present.

One episode of Freaky Stories featured a wealthy man who wasn't on speaking terms with any friend or relative and made a will leaving his fortune to anyone who bothered to attend the funeral. The only person to do it was an old woman who didn't even know him. She simply needed a bathroom and crashing the funeral was the only option. Seeing the blank condolence book, and feeling bad about crashing the funeral, she signed her name and wrote a note thanking him for 'helping her in her hour of need'.

The Boss from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. The only person who bothered to visit her grave and pay respect to her was Big Boss (Naked Snake). Well, at least he consistently did it, and even during her final moments, he was there. Possibly done to show how shallow the other higher-ups were, and how they didn't really care about her sacrifice. Also, due to the nature of her final mission, she was never even given a proper funeral. She is buried as an anonymous soldier.

During the events of the miniseries 52, Booster Gold appeared to have been killed; no one came to his funeral (even the heroes who carried his coffin were a bunch of Super Zeroes who were paid to do it.) Turns out he had faked his own death as part of a plan against a villain; whether the funeral was part of that or really represented the regard people had for him is unclear. However, in Booster Gold's case this trope has special meaning: He needs his time-traveling life to be a Stable Time Loop, which means he can't be remembered after death, because he knows he wasn't famous in the future. If he had a lonely funeral, it's because he spent his whole life ensuring it'd be that way.

Linked: Clayton Pouncey's grandfather was a member of the KKK "and worse", and took his five-year-old son to a mass cross-burning, the Night of a Thousand Flames. After hearing this story, Pouncey's friend Jordie muses that that explains why barely anyone attended Pouncey's grandfather's funeral (and some of those who did, like a younger Jordie, were ignorant of the old man's past and/or just wanted to be there for his family).

In one of the first issues of the modern Justice Society of America series, at Wesley Dodds' funeral, Wildcat remarks that when Madam Fatal died, the only people who came were the cast of the local production of La Cage aux folles (Madam Fatal was a male actor who fought crime in old-lady drag, and had been all but forgotten). This may have been sparked by the fact that the only people present were JSA, though the topic at the time was mortality in general, and Wildcat was also wondering how, or if, he himself would be remembered.

Person of Interest:
In a flashback scene in "Beta", a distraught Grace Hendricks is shown at the memorial for her fiancé, alone except for the attending priest. As Harold Finch has spent his entire life living in isolation and hiding his identity, and his Only Friend was killed in the bombing that supposedly killed him, there are no other mourners to Grace's bewilderment.
Near the end of the show's run, when Root died, she was buried in a potter's field with only a number on her tombstone, and only Reese and Fusco came to mourn her.

At the very beginning of Up, the now widowed Carl Friedricksen is the only mourner seen attending his late wife Ellie's funeral. The funeral is never shown — we see Carl alone with the casket (hopefully just after everyone else is gone), but that may be intended to underscore how alone he is without Ellie.

The funeral of Old Man Henderson is only attended by Jimmy and Kary, as well as the priest giving the funeral service. This is because Henderson didn't have any friends other than his party members, who, aside from those two, were all dead, and the only reason they survived is because their players couldn't make it to the final session, so they were Put on a Bus. The man himself actually requested that he not have a funeral and that his body just be chucked into the dump, claiming nobody cared about him in life, so nobody will care that he died, and his player was very touched that they gave him one at all. As Henderson's only living acquaintences, they also ended up getting his life insurance money, which they used to go to a good college together.

In Final Fantasy Tactics, the ending shows a funeral for Ramza's sister Alma, attended by a handful of elderly people, who were merely mourning the extinction of the noble Beoulve family. Ramza himself, meanwhile, is condemned as a heretic and denied even a marker (although he is the real object of mourning by two of those present at the funeral). Thankfully, neither Alma nor Ramza are actually dead, though only Olan saw this. Although the massive bloody war that just shook the world and killed countless people could be a factor there; all of Alma's friends were dead and the only people that survived the war to come were the old nobles who were safe from the war and too old to fight in it.

On the The Golden Girls, when Frieda Claxton, a despised neighbor of the Girls dies, they plan and attend the funeral, being the only ones there (and even they only attended out of guilt because she died right after Rose told her to “drop dead�). It is Played for Laughs when a woman stops by and reveals that she the deceased was a great supporter of charity, but keen on anonymous work, but she was at the wrong funeral. When the woman found out who she really was, she kicked the coffin, since she hated her as well.

Defied in Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, where D and a human woman swear that, when one learns of the other's death, they will make all haste to the grave site, so that at least one person will mourn the other's passing. D outlives the human (being half-vampire) and keeps his promise, observing her burial but keeping his distance from the crowd of family and friends. One of the woman's grandchildren notices him in the distance and goes to talk with him for a while, and D notes that he's glad that the woman's fear that she would die unmourned turned out to be unjustified; more significantly, he was relieved she turned away from her dark motives of revenge, living out the rest of her years in peace.

Despite being a Retired Badass general with a long and impressive service record in the Saiyan Army, the only Saiyans who bother to attend are Gine, Bardock's team (who are probably only there to support Gine), and a few no-name guards. However, according to Gine, this is seemingly normal for Saiyan culture.
